Gentle Sleep Instructor
Chapter 538 Filing a False Police Report Can Lead to Jail Time
"Did anyone else come with you?" Jiang Cheng asked Huai Yi.
"No one in the hotel," Huai Yi said, gasping for breath. "But there are quite a few outside the hotel. I saw seven or eight people."
"Where are they?"
Huai Yi looked out the window and said, "Across from the parking lot."
After gaining control of the situation, Jiang Cheng tied up the man who had fainted on the floor and threw him on the bed. Then he tied the woman's hands behind her back and bound her to a chair.
Jiang Cheng sat across from her, staring coldly at the woman. "Who sent you?"
"You can't afford to inquire about my background. I advise you not to make trouble for yourself," the woman said, though she was bound, her aura was not weak. "And I'm telling you, I brought a lot of people with me this time. If they don't hear from me in 15 minutes, they'll rush in and kill you both."
Jiang Cheng, however, seemed to realize something suddenly, and he stroked his chin, nodding. "You're right, I almost forgot."
"Give me your phone." Jiang Cheng reached out to Huai Yi for his phone.
Although Huai Yi was puzzled, it was not convenient to ask at this time, so he had to hand the phone to Jiang Cheng.
"Hello, I'm calling the police. There's a prostitution transaction near the parking lot across from the Jin Fan Building. Yes, they're in the car. Right now, please send officers as soon as possible." Jiang Cheng hung up the phone. "Solved."
Huai Yi took the phone back and asked in confusion, "Why couldn't you use your own phone?"
"Can't," Jiang Cheng shook his head. "Making a false police report can get you in jail."
Huai Yi: "???"
The woman's face was alternately gloomy and clear. These two guys were more difficult to deal with than she had thought, especially the young man in front of her, who gave her a sense of unfathomable depth.
There was no doubt that he was the one who could make decisions.
The woman focused all her attention on Jiang Cheng.
"I have no malice," the woman changed her tone, as if she wanted to sit down and discuss the current problem. "I just want that red blood pact. If you give me the blood pact, I've already brought the bargaining chips. They're in the suitcase over there."
She looked towards the door, where a black suitcase was placed against the wall.
Jiang Cheng didn't speak, still staring coldly at her.
"This price is already very good. It's unrealistic for you to raise it further, and these are all the permissions I have," the woman continued. "I need to remind you of one thing, that thing is useless to you, and..." her tone changed, "it will be dangerous."
Jiang Cheng was waiting for this sentence. "What danger?" He stared at the woman.
"I can't say." The woman looked at him.
Jiang Cheng picked up the woman's gun, put on a silencer, then stood up and pointed the gun at the woman's head. "Don't be so rigid, give me a chance?"
If it were someone else, the woman might not have been so afraid, but Jiang Cheng was different. His eyes were filled with indifference.
It seemed that killing someone was nothing to him.
Cold sweat dripped down the woman's face. She wanted to live, but she knew even better who had ordered her to do this and where they came from.
If they found out that she had betrayed the information... she would face consequences worse than death.
Just as she was about to grit her teeth and hold on, the phone suddenly rang.
Not hers, but Jiang Cheng's.
Without avoiding the woman and Huai Yi, Jiang Cheng answered directly. The voice on the other end was a man's, deep and a little hoarse.
"Let her go." Gong Zhe's voice was very recognizable, and Jiang Cheng immediately recognized it. "She's working for us."
"You sent them?" Jiang Cheng looked at the woman, narrowing his eyes slightly, and the woman only felt a chill run through her.
"No," Gong Zhe said. "It's a misunderstanding. What we want is that red piece of paper."
In just a few words, Jiang Cheng roughly understood that the other party was after the red paper. Because Huai Yi's account was used for the transaction, they didn't know about Jiang Cheng's existence before coming.
But if it was the middle-aged man, the process would be much simpler.
After all, he needed their help, and Fatty was still in their hands, so Jiang Cheng didn't want to go too far, so he asked Huai Yi to release the woman.
"Jiang-ge," Huai Yi exclaimed, "Just let her go like that? What if they come looking for revenge later..."
"No, I definitely won't bring people with guns back to your villa in the middle of the night," the woman looked at Huai Yi and said. "You have to believe me."
Huai Yi hesitated for a moment, then turned and walked into the bathroom.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"I'm still going to find a rope to strangle her to death, otherwise I won't be able to sleep peacefully." Huai Yi's rummaging sound came from the bathroom.
Finally, under Jiang Cheng's repeated assurances, Huai Yi calmed down.
At this time, Jiang Cheng also discovered the mystery on the woman's body. A miniature camera was installed on her second button.
From the moment she entered the door, every move in the room was being watched.
It was because they saw him that they directly called his phone.
"What's the use of the red paper?" Jiang Cheng asked. "You're willing to spend so much to acquire it."
"That's the red blood pact. Each red blood pact represents a door that was once out of control." Gong Zhe said calmly, "Give it to me, you can't use it."
"I could have given it to you, but I can't now," Jiang Cheng said. "That thing is lost."
Hearing that the red blood pact was lost, Huai Yi, and the woman who had just been untied, looked at Jiang Cheng with astonished expressions.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone. "Where did you lose it?"
"I'm not sure exactly, but it should be on the way from the company to my studio." Jiang Cheng took a breath and said casually, "So I'm afraid this deal can't be done. Your bargaining chips are all here, untouched. I'll have my people take them back."
"You lost the blood pact on the road?" Hearing this, the woman's face turned pale, and she looked at Jiang Cheng as if he were an idiot. "Do you know that if someone picks it up, a new supernatural event will occur!"
"What do you mean?" Jiang Cheng asked in surprise.
"Don't think that just because you solved that supernatural event, you destroyed that door. That door is just dormant."
"When it encounters the right person, that door will reawaken, and the more deeply eroded the door is, the faster it will reawaken." The woman's voice changed with excitement. "It will control new disciples, like zombie ants, turning into a mobile supernatural event, a walking door!"
"The only way to completely destroy a door is to let it be devoured, by another door, but for a door that has been completely eroded like this and is out of control, ordinary disciples dare not try it. If they are not careful, the door in their own body will also be affected."
"There was a case before where a disciple who was about to be completely eroded made a desperate gamble, forcibly devouring another door represented by a red blood pact, resulting in catastrophic consequences."
"The level of the supernatural event was directly defined as A-level. Later, many people died before the matter was suppressed."
